Gurners are guys who pull stupid faces for 'Gurning' competitions,
generally old gits on a crap pension with nothing better to do except
drink themselves silly and babble about garbage. It might not sound too
interesting, but some of these swines can touch their eyebrows with
their bottom lip - it's pretty scary. A good trick if you can learn it.
Also, 'Gurner' is used to describe a raver who can't help screwing up
his face because he's taken too much E, rat poison or god-knows-what and
is bombed out of his little mind. Generally young gits on dole with nothing
better to do except get high and.. er.. babble about garbage.
As a point of interest, Anthea Turner and Tony Blair are known as
gurners, though sadly for the first reason, not the second.
Cheers,
SjaY.
